I'd like fault-tolerant name conversions or context-sensitive warnings and
instructions. I'm thinking of the ways that naive editors get tripped up...

Maybe an option for case insensitive filename handling, so MyPic.JPG is
displayed when the editor keys Attach:mypic.jpg (or vice versa)?
And space/punctuation stripping, so that Attach:My Picture.jpg or
Attach:My-picture.jpg or My'picture.jpg will render MyPicture.jpg if it
exists?
And if the user uploads My Picture.JPG, or My.Picture.jpg, then
Attach:MyPicture.jpg will render it?
